I'm doing the 325/40/17 M&H on a 10 inch weld. I have not been able to get any wheel spin when I'm racing but I hear the track prep is awesome. The only suspension change I have is the ADM solid subfame bushings. No hop and no spin.... I have a little more power on the dyno now, maybe I can scratch the tires a little the next time out.

I'm also running solid subframe bushings Jess. Maybe I need to try a set of M/H. I have no wheel hop either. The 325 should be 32.5 cm which is around 13" have you every measured tire to confirm???

That tire seems to be hooking pretty damn good. Ive been testing at bradenton latley with the the MT ET Streets and the car hasn't been hooking at all I was in the 1.6s which I was never in all night up until the last few runs where I got in the mid 1.5s. I gotta get those tires and go back to palm beach and see if the better track prep will get me in the 1.4s!
My buddy with just a cam, converter and the welds with those M&Hs was in the mid 1.4 60fts consistently! I have to order some!

Jess do you think the ADM solid subframe bushings help with tire spin? Please explain why they do.I know some have put those on just wondering what the benefit is to have them.

If you are stick car you may see a very little help with solid subframe bushings but at least your on the right track. Set the suspension up....tires are fine.
